It was so fun to see everyones photos that makes them smile! They are my absolute favorite kind. Sometimes one makes me smile inside and feel the moment again, one that would have otherwise been lost, and for someone else they wonder why I even care about it. That is why I love photography. It is an emotional connection special to the viewer that can't be duplicated another way. So, here are some of my favorite "And Then I Smiled" photos to share with you.
She would put this boat in the water and as it drifted up with the waves she would chase it and catch it, smiling and content. The light here makes my heart sing. The friends in the background make me feel lucky.
I knew I would love this spinning photo the instant I took it. My little loves this dress and insists on wearing it every week to church. All because it spins so well. I love the movement here, the glorious light, and the yummy bokeh. All wrapping up the love that a little princess has to spin and spin.
The light here is so lovely to me and instantly makes me smile. Place some bonding family members in there and I call it magic.
I am in love with the beach and ocean. Just being there makes me smile. I shot this with my lensbaby and love the effect it gave of a lone girl taking in all the beauty the beach has to offer. She looks so small against the great big world.
I have never met a kid that blinks in as many photos as this girl. I instantly smiled when I took this. The closed eyes, the puckered strawberry stained lips, the blowing hair, the perspective, and the bokeh! It all comes together to make me smile because it shows her personality perfectly!
Thank you for having me Click Style! It was an honor to be part of your lovely page for the week!
Jenny
